Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 11 (ANI): Key equity gauges headed northward on Friday and closed the week at record highs with metal, auto and IT stocks leading the bull run.
Analysts said the market mood was upbeat amid hopes of a quick economic revival post unlocking and expectation of large number of adult population vaccinated this year.
The BSE SP Sensex closed 174 points or 0.33 per cent higher at 52,475 while the Nifty 50 moved up by 62 points or 0.39 per cent to 15,799.
